Hold on a minute... your 340, it's the special edition that adam posted isn't it? Extra gauges/electric windows/central locking etc?

Poor old 360 3 door, is it beyond saving?

Th :340: does sound a lot like gemmas, what are the odds of 2 in the same family!

The 360 is in a bad way but i reckon it can be saved, as ive said before i wanted to start on it ages ago but dad wouldnt let me and now i can its a lot more work sm38 . There is one problem though but im not sure how serious, when the bonnet catch on the 340 went dad took an angle grider to the front x-member to get the 360s off sm38

And Adam you have certainly made a better job of your car than whoever didi the mods to Dawns Ka in the background :lol:

Yeah I noticed the bonnet catch missing, I guess you could replace the crossmember completely by welding another one in with the bonnet catch intact. Despite it being there for what looks a damn long time to get that dirty, it doesnt look too rusty still!

Damn that metallic grey is a nice colour! Even better than black IMO - and I've not seen many GLT's here in that colour :(
